Soundtrack re-edit workflow advice

I cut online videos to production music tracks and would like some input on good workflow practice.
I need to be able to quickly re-edit the production tracks to match the timing of my video tracks so I currently do it in in Final Cut Pro. Needless to say, I don't get much control or functionality in FC so occassionally I send to Soundtrack Pro and re-compile. ST doesn't seem to be particularly well set up for re-editing music tracks either though.
So I'm wondering if anyone has any advice for other software which will enable me to quickly establish beats/bars which can be cut out or added to match my audio to video narrative which also works well with FC.
Cheers,
Jesse.

Film workflow advice

Hello,
I need some workflow advice for a feature film and I would really appreciate some input and technical expertise. I am working with telecined footage from 16mm film and I need to perform reverse telecine with Cinematools so that I can edit the footage in Final cut. My end format will be a 35mm blow up from my original 16mm negative, so I need Cinematools to track my footage correctly so that I can later export a cut list for the negative cutter.
My digital footage is SD and is on DV cam tapes. The lab used a telecine speed of 23.98 when they transferred the footage. The lab provided flex files which I used to create a cinema tools database and to batch capture all of the footage.
First, I need to confirm that the footage was captured correctly.
To capture I used the FCP preset: DV NTSC 48 kHz (29.97 fps DV-NTSC Best Quality 720x480)
I did not use the FCP capture preset "DV NTSC 48 kHz Advanced (2:3:3:2) Pulldown Removal" because my understanding is that this preset is designed to remove pulldown during capture when used with external hardware designed to remove pulldown during capture, correct? In this case I will be removing the pulldown with Cinema Tools instead.
I also am assuming that setting the capture fps to 23.98 would have been wrong because my footage is coming from DV Cam tapes, which can only be 29.97, right? So even though the telecine speed was 23.98, the footage needs to be captured at 29.97 and then processed with Cinematools to make it 23.98 or 24 fps, correct?
Second, I need to know if my goal should be to make my footage 23.98 or 24 fps with Cinematools. If my end goal is to export an EDL for a negative cutter to go back to my 16mm footage to cut from, should I edit at 24 fps? I think the answer is yes, but then I am worried that my telecine was done at a speed of 23.98. My audio was recorded at 30 fps - though my understanding is that the fps of the audio doesn't matter since audio is recorded in time and not frames. However, I did read in the Cinematools manual that if the footage is 23.98 as opposed to 24 fps, then it means that my footage is going to playback at a slightly slower rate, thereby affecting audio sync. If that is true, will I have to slow my audio slightly to maintain sync? This doesn't seem ideal.
Third, I am having trouble when I do a reverse telecine test with Cinematools on my footage. I am looking at burned-in key code and film frame numbers in my footage and observing that when I advance through my footage frame by frame in FCP, the film frame numbers of every frame are perfectly clear and legible (they advance thus: A2, B2, C1, D1, D3). However, when I view a clip in Cinematools (pre-reverse telecine), the frame numbers are blurred and have interframe flicker (the interlacing field pattern). The same is true after I perform reverse telecine on the clip. The cinemtools manual mentions this as something to be avoided in a clip that has been reverse telecined (in "Checking you Reverse Telecine Results on page 132) - however I see this problem in clips that I have not yet reverse telecined.
I am worried because another person worked with this footage before me and I fear that they performed reverse telecine on the footage already (and incorrectly) and directed Cinematools to overwrite the original file instead of creating a new one. If this is true then I would have to start over and recapture everything. On the other hand, it seems like if that were the case I would see the problem in FCP as well. Is there a way that I can tell for sure?
Thank you so much in advance for any advice you can give me! I really appreciate it.

Thanks Jim. The project is sort of like an "extended music video".
So it is a record, 45 minutes long and then using that as a guide,
we shot the footage. Its not gonna be just lipsyncing all the time, but
there will be other things inserted there as well.
It is just the workflow that bothers me and mainly:
1 Should I convert HDV material after capturing with prores 422 or stay in native
2 When should I convert from PAL to NTSC?
3 Should I s t a r t, by importing the 5.1 surround mixes to FCP6 and then work
with that as a guide?
I´ve done some music videos before, but this is more like a music movie and
will be sold as a sales DVD.
I would appreciate any help you guys can give.
Thank you, timo

Looking for some workflow advice

I'm starting work on a project that has media coming from several different sources, and I'd like some workflow advice. I'm using the CS6 Production Premium suite on a Windows7 computer. My primary video source is a Canon XF-100 shooting 24/1080p MXF video, but I'll also be incorporating AVC-HD shots taken with a 60D, XA10, GoPro, and iPhone. So, here are my main questions:
1. Should I transcode or not? Most of the footage (at least 2/3rds or so) will be from the XF-100, which Premiere can edit natively. I'm inclined just to put the AVC-HD clips straight into an MXF-formatted project and let Premiere render them in the sequences as needed. But I'm also wondering if it would be better for overall quality and consistency to transcode everything into the same format before importing into the project and set the project to that format.
2. If I do transcode, what format? Should I just convert the AVC-HD stuff to MXF for use in an MXF-native project? Or should I convert everything to another format entirely?. If so, which one? (I'm thinking AVC-Intra 100 at 24/1080p, but I'm not sure.)
Any experienced sages out there want to offer their $0.02? Thanks in advance,
Stu

transcoding will not produce any better quality. you can actually degrade the quality in most cases, unless transcoding to raw. transcoding is usually done for proxy editing to allow for faster editing, or compatibility, if the original file cannot be read by the editing application. premiere pro usually handles mixed formats well, just make sure to either create the sequence from a clip that matches the destination format or create a sequence manually and specify the format that will be used for export.
if you do need to transcode to get some files to read, the avid dnxhd codec is a popular choice as it takes very little cpu and gpu resources to read. it has several quality options you can choose from, but it is limited to 1080p. if you transcode for faster editing (proxy editing), use dnxhd 36 8bit, and relink to the originals when done to keep their quality.

Anyone encountered this before in the clustered setup ?
Thanks,

Hello,
But if you see the trace, it is coming from the OOTB library. Isn't it ? It doesn't indicate if there is any issue in any custom beans.
java.io.NotSerializableException: com.thortech.xl.webclient.workflowutil.ImageGenerator$FieldMoreover, i see this error in the log with case 2: ("configure" data flow). However, it is working and the the UI is showing me the data flow with this error in the log.
My major concern is case 1: ("edit" workflow) which is not showing me anything on the UI ?
Ideally, it should trigger Nexaweb client to populate the workflows in the UI.
*1 interesting observation:*
If i go to "Design console" -> process definition -> "Render workflow",
then it opens the workflow in the default explorer and the url which is opened in the browser is same as the previous case. It is working here as expected. Does this means the problem is with Nexaweb client load in the UI in case 1. How to fix this ?
Please suggest.
Thanks,

Tools crashes on Edit Workflow Process

Hi All,
Whenever i click 'Edit Workflow' in the Workflow Object Explorer, my Siebel Tools 8.1.1.10 crashes. This has been happening for a few months now. I had IE6, upgraded it to IE 8.
My Operating system is Windows XP.
Can anyone please help me out here as now I really need this working.
I can provide the crash file along with the fdr file and spool. Just dunno how to upload here.
Regards,
Stephen

In AE, select the clip and control click and choose interpret footage. Choose the correct parameters and then output. Kind of a pain. You can also retime in compressor by setting the desired frame rate the the encoder panel: video and then in frame controls setting the appropriate timing.
Studio X is a wse man and he's probably right, but I also ran your crash log thru digital rebellions's crash analyzer and this it what it says
ProKit Framework
This crash seems to have been caused by the ProKit framework. A common cause for this crash is a mismatched framework version. Make sure you have the correct version of ProKit for your version of Cinema Tools.
If you upgraded your operating system, you may have still have older pro user interface elements installed instead of the ones compatible with your current OS. If this is the case, you will need to either update ProKit (if an update is available) or reinstall Final Cut Pro from scratch.
Suggested Actions
Update Final Cut Studio and ProKit.
Remove Final Cut Studio and reinstall.

Questions about a specific offline editing workflow with AVCHD Source

I`m working on a imac i5 in FCS3 with ProRes422
I got a Sony HDR XR 500 AVCHD Camera, i get the material in FCP with the Log & Transfer Window. In this way the material is going to render on the fly to the Target Codec ProRes422.
In the editing workflow in FCP i recognize the system got a little problem with the big ProRes files which means that the workflow slows down by the data rates of ProRes in HD
Now i think about offline Editing for months.
I read about the workflow, but there`s is one part that i don`t understand.
In every tutorial about this thread, they say that in the end of editing process you have to make your timeline files offline with the media manager, than recapture, reconnect from the tape with timecode.
BUT I DON`T HAVE A TAPE !!
My source files are AVCHD, which every one starts by tc 00:00:00:00
are the following thoughts possible, and how do i do this in detail?
when i do Copy my ProRes422 full hd files with media manager, so the filenames are still the same like the original ones.
in the copied project i start media manager again and turn the whole project in ProResProxy for offline editing. The file names are still the same.
then i edit my project in this ProResProxy Project !
At the end, shortly before i want to render out the whole movie in Full Resolution ....how can i reconnect with the original sized full HD ProRes422 files that are sleeping in a folder on my machine??
Can someone tell me something specific to this workflow, or a better one?

Folks, i've Found a Workflow in the web and tested it tonight - (it Works)!
And this Way i can Archive my Final project later on DVD or BR in AVCHD Source Files which are much smaller as pro Res 422 or HQ...
Here's the process in a nutshell.
- Backup your full cards. This needs to be done no matter what you do.
- Log and Transfer the footage as ProRes Proxy.
- Edit.
- When you lock picture, Media Manage the sequence using the MAKE OFFLINE option, choose the codec you want to reimport this footage as...ProRes 422. You will end up with a new sequence with only the footage used in the cut, with handles (yes, give yourself like 3 second handles).
- Use Log and Transfer to load all of the card backup folders. Just locate them...don't transfer again. You are telling FCP where the folders are. Close L&T.
- Highlight the sequence in the Browser, or all the clips in the MEDIA folder that is created, and choose BATCH CAPTURE. This will bring up the Log and Capture interface, but don't worry, it will now log and transfer the footage, and ONLY the small chunks of video you choose. It will recognize the IN and OUT points.
Do a small test and see for yourself. I have done this with AVCIntra P2 and it works well.

Contract editing workflow

Hello Experts,
Is it possible to have a custom contract change (edit) workflow?
I understand that sensitive fields can be identified, change in those fields can trigger information emails, however I wanted to understand if change workflow can be created (not via the EHP fund management workflow).
Thanks

Looking for a new toy to help your editing workflow? Try this!

I recently ditched my simple 2-button + scroll wheel mouse for a mouse on steroids: the Logitech G700. What a difference! It has 11 customizable functions that can be automatically activated depending on the program you're in! So you can have a completely unique set of functions for Premiere, Photoshop, AE, Windows, etc, and each set will automatically/instantly be activated whenever that specific program/interface is the active one!
Here are my 2 layouts to give you some ideas:
Premiere Pro Layout:
Windows Layout:
You can even assign multi-step macros to keys. For example, I set one of the keys to: Deselect clips + Add Default Video Transition. So now, a single keypress will always apply my default video transition to the CTI, even if any clips were selected, just the way it worked in CS6 and I wanted it to keep working in CC!
If you're looking for a simple inexpensive way to improve your editing work, I highly recommend getting a programmable mouse like this one! If anyone has any other hardware devices that help their workflow, please share so that we can all benefit from the knowledge.
Cheers!

I am in the market for a new PC for my wife, and she will be inheriting the keyboard and mouse I am using now so I can get new ones. She picked these out to begin with since we were sharing a computer for a while so she will be happy with them.
That looks like a really great mouse. I may just have to take your advice on this one.
Although the newer version looks even cooler: http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-G700s-Rechargeable-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B00BFOEY3Y/ref=dp_ob_tit le_ce
My wife would HATE that mouse, but since she will finally have her own again, I can get any mouse I want.
Very cool. Thanks.

Edit Workflow Mailer - Purchase Order Email Subject

Hi,
We have configured the workflow mailer to enable reminders to be sent out to approvers which relate to Purchase Order approvals that have not been responded to.
However, as well as a reminder email being sent, there is also an email telling the approver that the previous email has been canceled. This has a the email subject prefixed with "Canceled:"
Our problem is that users are seeing this and thinking that the Purchase Order has been cancelled. We therefore want to either edit the subject of this email, or stop it being sent.
Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Recapturing for Online Edit Workflow

Hello everyone and thanks for your help.
I just finished editing a project that was shot in HDCAM 1080 25p. Not sure if it's 8 bit or 10 bit.
We edited it in PAL DV and need to deliver in full resolution.
I chose the AJA KONA LK: 1080i 25 8bit codec from the Capture/Input box. The sequence is 60 minutes long and FCP tells me I will need 7 tetrabytes to capture it. Does this sound right?
I have a few 1000 Gig drives, but when I try to start capturing, I get a message that there is not enough space on the disc. I thought about breaking up the sequence for capturing, but I am not sure that's the best workflow because I'll have clips from the same tape in various parts of the film, and I'll have to reload the same tapes over and over.
Can someone tell me what the best workflow is for this? Thanks.

I talked to someone who suggested the Pro Res codec as it takes up less space (he said 120 gigs per hour, which is a lot less than the uncompressed). If anyone has any other advice about this please let me know.
I now used Media Manager to create an offline version of my sequence. Now, when I go to log and capture, it wants to import 16 hours of footage instead of just the 93 minutes that are in my sequence. It seems it needs to capture the entire tape, instead of just the part of the clip that I am using. Is there any way to use Media Manager/Log and Capture to tell FCP to capture just the part of the clip that I am using in my sequence?
Thanks

Soundtrack Pro editing

I was just wondering if it was possible to actually edit a song in this program or if it is directed more at creating your own music. If so, then what kind of software lets you take apart the instruments of a song, speed it up, cut out lyrics and leave the instrumentals, slow it down, create your own party mix or techno version? I have figured out how to make the music file sound of a large music hall, but not really much else. I have just played with the effects basically not knowing exactly what I am doing...If this program can actually edit songs I would love some help! Thanks.
Adam

depends on what you mean by "edit". STP sort of walks a weird line between a waveform editor and an arrangment/mixing/sound design tool. as far as waveform editing goes, it's the best out there in my opinion. does a great job and has tons of workflow features. as far as arrangement or composition goes; it's a bit more limited. it doesn't have any musical MIDI capabilities and can't host any virtual instruments. it can however host Audio Unit effects plugins and comes with all of the Logic plugs which are top notch. the Space Designer reverb used to cost hundreds just by itself, as an example. it does have fairly extensive audio cleanup and EQ features, some of which you could use to do some of the things you describe such as trying to isolate or remove frequency ranges or instrument sounds from a mix. and it does allow for multitrack arranging and mixing, but you can only record a single track at a time. for remixing or composition i think it really shines when working strictly with loops. you can do all sorts of elastic time stretching etc as well. i also have Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Reason and a ton of soft synths etc that i use for actually composing original tracks. i use Soundtrack Pro strictly as a wave editor at this point, and only for compositions made from Apple Loops.

Hi,
For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you do as the followings:
1. Check the ULS log for more detailed error message, for SharePoint 2013, the ULS log is located at the path:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS
You can use ULS Log Viewer to check the information in the log.
2. You can use fiddler to track if there is something wrong in the workflow request.

RAW editing workflow with Photoshop Elements 6

I have been using the following workflow with RAW images in iPhoto and editing them in Photoshop Elements 6. It seems to be working fine. Does anyone see a problem with my workflow???
I choose to edit in external editor (Elements 6), and the image opens in Camera Raw. I make my edits here because I really like the editing power of Camera Raw. After I am finished, I chose Save As and choose jpeg. The save dialog tries to save back to the Originals folder in the iPhoto Library that the RAW file came from, so I simply choose the appropriate event in the Modified folder and save it there. It replaces the jpeg that iPhoto had created when the original RAW file was imported. When I go back to iPhoto the changes are applied.
Now I realize that I can't reopen the original RAW file again in Elements without reverting to original, but that is usually not an issue. I also realize that messing with the iPhoto Library outside of iPhoto can be dangerous. Another drawback is that I haven't been able to open multiple RAW photos from iPhoto into Camera Raw so I can apply changes all at once.
But I can't see anything wrong with the workflow. Am I on the right track, or am I missing something?

No, I don't believe you can do that with RAW editing. By manually replacing the first modified version with your RAW edited version iPhoto will not update the thumbnail. You will be able to see the edited version if you go to the edit mode or full screen mode. But the thumbnail will not be identical. If that's OK with you then you should be able to go with that workflow.
If the edits are significant enough you might want to save the new file to the desktop and import as a new file.
You can try this on a copy of the iPhoto Library. Open the library package and move the contents of the Data folder to the trash along with the Thumb32Segment.data, Thumb642Segment.data and ThumbJPGSegment.data files. Then launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options. This will rebuild the thumbnail files and my reflect your edited versions. Again, make a backup copy of the library before trying this.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How does one edit workflows?

I've recently been made aware of the bug in the Save PDF to Web Receipts Folder workflow and was hoping to do a quick edit. I even found some edit tips online. Easy peasy, no?
The problem is, Automator opens the workflow and it simply must be incomplete. There is only one step in the workflow ("New Folder" which creates the new Web Receipts folder) and *nothing at all* in the Actions column. When I opened another workflow ("Mail PDF") to double-check, I get the same problem: only one step (this time it's "New Mail Message") and no actions listed.
Any guesses? I am a vet programmer but new to Automator. Am I overlooking something?
Thanks,
J.

Thanks for your response Bob.
Yes, should Apple not offer the complete feature set for the technician / traveler in the field on an iOS device, for a price perhaps. After all, Apple is so into making money now!
What is the real meaning of this very poor half baked release? Protection for the simple, less experienced? Perhaps a wise effort.
And ... What about that cutting the cord effort? Well, sort of, doesn't quite get there!
Sigh! Yes, I submitted a request for a finished version of the app to the hedge.
Sorry! What happened to the 'It just works!' Apple we used to know?
So... must have an AirBook as the iPad toy is just not ready for prime time in the enterprise, yet!
